| Obverse description | Nude male rider with long flowing hair, shown on a horse standing to right; the figure grasps the bridle with both hands, displaying the characteristic Tarentine equestrian type. The field is plain, and the magistrate's initials ΦΙ appear in the left field, with the name ΦΙΛΗΝΕΝΟΣ distributed around the type. The style is characteristic of the later Tarentine series, reflecting accomplished die-cutting of the Hellenistic period. |
